"Ku Zhu, have a seat." Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "It seems you've gained some insights into the 'Sutra of Supreme Attainment' over these years. Looking at your current state, you're just a step away from the Advanced Empyrean Realm. Do you know why you haven't broken through to Level Seven of the Empyrean Realm yet?"
Ancestor Ku Zhu sighed with emotion, "I don't know. Perhaps it's my destiny to be weak."
"Not so!" Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile, "In the martial dao, there has always been talk of defying the heavens to change one's fate. Destiny has its degrees, that's true, but tell me, which Martial Artist truly reaching the peak hasn't had the courage to defy destiny? And you, Ku Zhu, are not someone of weak destiny. Otherwise, in that battle back then, would I have spared you? It would have been better to kill you directly, forever eliminating future threats, wouldn't it?"
"You didn't kill me, wasn't it to enslave me?" Ancestor Ku Zhu was taken aback.
